There are definitely some timing issues, nothing fast though.

Thanks for the fun!

I was obviously using an alternate method because many of the objects were not used.

I'm not sure what you had left over but I made a few changes that will hopefully mean all items should be used, but then again... ?

That tightened it up a bit, but still I didn't touch the following:

One metal box and the red sphere inside it (or alternately the two metal boxes), the top boulder (near the trampoline) and the top-right barrel (which did not explode).

Woo wee! Off to play!

I'm working on this one Bob

Needless to say I can't get out of the first room in any meaningful way.

Back later.

Have you... Set both boulders running around, constantly opening and closing the red and blue gates?

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Tue Feb 12, 2013 12:29 pm

Yes Amnon, I have done that on a couple of attempts.
So at least I know that's the right way to start.
Thanks!

So at least I know that's the right way to start.

And one more point: I hope you are aware that it is possible to escape a generator in action by running sideways away from it!

I can see one way to get to the right side not using some of the lower equipment but it involves tramping among the running boulders and a quick move through the white gate at the top right. And you can kill the right side ufo with a sphere but I find the barrel more dramatic.

As for the start,
tramp left, leave the boulder, right over lower tramp, left over right side tramp, follow the lower boulder and push top boulder left then stand on the breaktile abover the red gate

Hope that helps. I had a feeling this might be a stinker so I'll start working on a walkthrough.

That way doesn't work for me Bob. The white gate at the bottom is always closed by the time I get there.

This is what I do:

Tramp left, leave boulder, tramp right over lower tramp. Tramp left, right across middle 2 tramps. Push top boulder right and go wait at the red gate. The top boulder pushes the bottom one into action and I can get down through the white gate in time, although I don't have time to break the bridge tile by the barrel before the gate closes.

After that I'm not quick enough to get through that top white gate.
I'm trying various strategies.

EDIT: I got through the top white gate. Now I'm having problems with the right side, but it's early days on that.

Here's the walkthrough. I think this took longer to write than the level took to make.

First thing I do is collect the coins on the tramps
-tramp left, leave the boulder, right over lower tramp
-left over right side tramp, follow the lower boulder
-push top boulder left then stand on the breaktile above the red gate
-step down and box left, then up and push box right (quickly stepping up to avoid the newly generated boxes)
-push top left, step down and box right (again move quickly down and through the white gate
-collect the bonus coin left of the right metal box
-push the red spheres up but don't hurt the ufo
-red sphere left and up when the ufo is below the left metal box, wait
-white gate should open and ufo blows keg
-tramp up, up, R, L and collect coin on conveyor
-push metal box up onto yellow button and go back down
-push metal boxes up and collect remaining bonus coins
-tramp up and then over tree and push the boulder left (watch your
timing)
-white gate should open, walk to the far right box/sphere
-push sphere down when the ufo is below the left one and blocks it
-push left sphere down when the ufo is below the bottom one
-push right box onto ice and left box down 5 spaces (the tile is marked)
-collect top bonus coin and step into blue tp when safe
-push bottom sphere up when ufo is above the left sphere
-ufo should travel up and explode the top keg
-metal boxes down to form a bridge
-keg onto tramp, white gate should open again
-go through and back up to the exit

Hi Bob
I had great fun with this one and loved especially the part with the UFO and the spheres.

Thanks again.

annedanner · Post by **annedanner** » Wed Feb 13, 2013 8:46 pm

What fun! Thanks, Bob. I used all of the objects and didn't see any other way to do it except for "your way".

Thanks to everyone who decided to take a run at this one. I knew it was getting a little wacky but sometimes it's hard to stop once you get going.

I'm still not 100% sure how Amnon did it, but if you read this Amnon, maybe you wouldn't mind sending me a PM with an abbreviated walkthrough.

Thanks for the walkthrough Bob! I'd never have worked out that business with the right side UFO. Very clever stuff.
Even with the walkthrough it still took me 4 restarts because something or other went wrong in that area.

I did the bottom left UFO area differently to the walkthrough:

I killed the UFO with a red sphere, then the second red sphere opened the white gate so I went through and broke the bridge tile. At the end I pushed the barrel into the water to get back.

Thanks for the workout!
